Toba Beta
“Hard to accept the end of a story
that won the villain against heroes.”
Toba Beta, Master of Stupidity

Rose Grave
“Hello, priest," Lord Lucian said, his voice low and
velvety, yet laced with an undercurrent of menace. "How
about saying hello to God for
me?”
Father Michael swallowed hard. “I—I’ll pray…”
The congregation’s collective breath hung in the silence.
Lucian’s smile was a thing of winter—beautiful, cold, and
merciless. “That’s the thing, Father. I’ve studied Him for
centuries without breath, and I’ve noticed something.”
From-When Darkness Loves:Shadows Bleed.”
Rose Grave
